Note how R’s are not tearing down Comcast or private equity right now despite their serious problems. The attacks are ideological.
There are things we can do to improve NIH and science.

Another problem is that science is usually slow - TV/movie "breakthroughs" that change everything are very very rare.
Trump and Republicans intentionally made up lies about Fauci and science SO THAT they could blame science for COVID — to help Trump in the 2020 election.
